Bitumen roofing is highly durable and can withstand various weather conditions, including intense sun, wind, and rain.
It offers a great balance of affordability and long-term reliability.
Requires minimal upkeep over its lifespan, reducing long-term cost. Repairs are generally simple and cost-effective, extending the roof’s lifespan when issues do arise.
This serves as the initial support structure and provides essential waterproofing for the roofing system. Typically includes base sheets or underlayment that provide structural integrity and a secure foundation for additional layers.
The main waterproofing layer made of bitumen combined with polymers for enhanced flexibility and durability. Reinforced with materials like polyester or fiberglass to improve strength and resistance to weather conditions.
The method used to secure the bitumen membrane to the roof structure. Includes hot-mop (asphalt), cold adhesive, or self-adhering sheets for various installation needs and preferences.
The outermost layer designed for UV protection and aesthetic appeal, which can also enhance the roof’s energy efficiency. Often includes reflective coatings to minimize heat absorption and improve energy efficiency, while providing additional protection against weathering.
Layers of insulation incorporated in the roof system help maintain a stable indoor temperature, contributing to energy savings.
Bitumen roofing can be coated with reflective materials that reduce heat absorption, keeping the building cooler and reducing air conditioning costs.
Light-colored and reflective bitumen roofs reflect sunlight, helping decrease heat buildup in urban areas.
